Question 1(a) If u = ex(xsinyy cosy), nd v such that f(z) = u+iv is analytic. Also nd f(z) explicitly as a function of z. Solution. See 1993, question 2(b). Question 1(b) Let f(z) be analytic inside and on the circle C dened by |z| = R and let rei be any point inside C. Prove that f(rei) = 2 1

Question 2(a) Find the region of convergence of the series whose n-th term is (1)n1z2n1 (2n 1)! . Solution.
